Fun with Drones

I have a Mavic Pro drone I’ve been playing with for a while now. It’s been great fun, and has also proved useful on occasion. For example, my school expanded it’s parking lot last year, and I was able to take updated aerial photos of the new layout. This also allowed me to make some neat new campus maps by tracing designs over the photo in Illustrator. I had my drone out again recently because I wanted some new shots of the parking area with the landscaping grown in a bit. While I was flying anyway, I decided to try some new techniques. I took some 360 panoramas (I used Litchi software to automate this, but it’s perfectly doable in the DJI software). I then took the pictures into Microsoft’s free Image Composite Editor software. I think the results are pretty cool! I’ll definitely be doing more of this.
